White House mistakenly identifies CIA chief in Afghanistan

Comment:

The incompetent Obama White House throws another person under the bus. This isn't the first time that the Obama White House has outed out someone, they outed out a British intelligence informant for political gain back in 2012. Not to mention >"The identities of at least three CIA station chiefs in Pakistan have been exposed in recent years. In one case, a CIA officer became a target of death threats after his cover was blown, forcing the agency to rush him out of the country."<

White House mistakenly identifies CIA chief in Afghanistan

>" The CIA’s top officer in Kabul was exposed Saturday by the White House when his name was inadvertently included on a list provided to news organizations of senior U.S. officials participating in President Obama’s surprise visit with U.S. troops.

The White House recognized the mistake and quickly issued a revised list that did not include the individual, who had been identified on the initial release as the “Chief of Station” in Kabul, a designation used by the CIA for its highest-ranking spy in a country.

The disclosure marked a rare instance in which a CIA officer working overseas had his cover — the secrecy meant to protect his actual identity — pierced by his own government..."<

Repeat after me, Valerie Plame.

"He who does not think himself worth saving from poverty and ignorance by his own efforts, will hardly be thought worth the efforts of anybody else." -- Frederick Douglass, Self-Made Men (1872)
"Fly-over" country voted, and The Donald is now POTUS. #MAGA

Re: White House mistakenly identifies CIA chief in Afghanistan

No body in the Bush administration ****ed up, it was deliberately done.

Valerie Plame was not a CIA station chief or a CIA officer or a CIA operative. She was a frickin secretary who no longer had any connections to the CIA.

My point is the hypocrisy............watch as the lefties circle the wagons around this **** up.
